Break The Mould

Break away from the chokehold of society.Freedom is achieved by developing a plan that follows specific guidelines. Freedom has different meanings to different people.But the ultimate goal is to TAKE BACK CONTROLA GUIDELINE FOR HOW YOU COULD SET UP YOUR BUSINESS • Control - Be your Boss •  Entry -  High barrier of entry for others makes you more valuable •  Need -  Do people need what you are selling?•  Time - Your business should be able to function without you• Scale - Can your business grow and how big?

Freedom

Make taking action part of your lifestyle.Whatever it is you feel drawn to, GO FOR IT.• ASK FOR FORGIVENESS, NOT FOR PERMISSIONAlways question your beliefs and approach everything you do with a BEGINNER'S MINDSET - stay forever curious • Know the goal, but focus and enjoy the journey.• The journey is about BECOMING not just being

BE ACTIVE

There is no straight line in nature.Life is filled with ups and downs, whether it's your career trajectory or the economy Life isn't easy sailing as we would like things to be but this builds our resilience and character.This is what society expects of you: 1. Get educated 2. Get a job 3. Get into debt 4. Buy a house 5. Buy a car6. Get married7. Have 2 kids 8. Retire at the age of 60 These aren't all the steps of course but you get the picture. This isn't realistic.This isn't life, life is about living not working to enjoy just a slice of life at the end. Live fully daily

(M)ediocre: You are just surviving your ordinary, comfortable  life  (O)bedient: You're the sheep following the herd not thinking for yourself, trusting governments and news(D)pendant: You are owned and dependent on others.(E)entertained: You consume useless, mind-numbing content, not generate original ideas.(L)lifeless: You have allowed the world to drown your ambitions and aspirations

What if Life Wasn't About 50 Years of Wage-Slavery, Paying Bills and then Dying? Tired of sleepwalking through a mediocre life bribed by mindless video-gaming, redemptive weekends, and a scant paycheck from a soul-suffocating job? Welcome to the SCRIPTED club— where membership is neither perceived or consented. The fact is, ever since you’ve been old enough to sit obediently in a classroom, you have been culturally engineered for servitude, unwittingly enslaved into a Machiavellian system where illusionary rules go unchallenged, sanctified traditions go unquestioned, and lifelong dreams go unfulfilled. As a result, your life is hijacked and marginalised into debt, despair, and dependence. Life's death sentence becomes the daily curse of the trivial and mundane. Fun fades. Dreams die. Don't let life's consolation prize become a car and a weekend. Recapture what is yours and make a revolutionary repossession of life-and-liberty through the pursuit of entrepreneurship. A paradigm shift isn't needed—the damn paradigm needs to be thrown-out altogether. The truth is, if you blindly follow conventional wisdom pushed by conventional people living conventional lives, can you expect to be anything but conventional? Rewrite life’s script: ditch the job, give Wall Street the bird, and escape the insanity of trading your life away for a paycheck and an elderly promise called retirement. UNSCRIPT today and start leading life— instead of life leading you.

Life. Liberty. And the Pursuit of Entrepreneurship. Build A Business That Goes Beyond Paying Bills... It Changes Your Life. It is waking up in the morning and pinching yourself black-and-blue that OMG, this is my life, and it is freaking awesome.You live in your dream house, but there's no mortgage. No alarm clock, no boss, no bills. No claims on the day's time other than what you choose. It is making more money before breakfast than you made for an entire week at your last job. It is a crazy expensive car parked in your garage, a victorious symbol that your dreams no longer sleep in fantasies, but are awake with reality. Make no mistake, this life exists. I know, because it has been mine for nearly 20 years. And in a few short years, it can be yours as well. Better, you won't need 5 tedious decades of thankless jobs, buzz killing frugality, and patient investing with our trusted friends on Wall Street. Unfortunately, you have been SCRIPTED to believe that such a life is out of your reach, or only possible for a certain type of person. Someone with a certain college degree, a certain amount of VC funding, or a certain contact list of connected friends from Stanford. I am here to tell you, that none of it is true. While I have been entrepreneur most of my life, I am no one special. You won't read about me over at Tech Crunch or in some Silicon Valley newsletter. While I have been an internet entrepreneur since the old &quot;you've got mail&quot; AOL days, I have never been funded by venture capitalists, I have never had a payroll with more than 5 people on it, and I have never studied computer science at school.Despite this, I am able to create profitable businesses that create the type of UNSCRIPTED life described above. We are talking five- and six-figure monthly profits with valuations in the millions. Although I have had two successful exits, do not let that scare you; it is just a welcome side effect of the process.Make no mistake, UNSCRIPTED is not about some trendy new marketing tactic that becomes ineffectively overused within months. It's not about fifty-year stock-market fantasies or depriving yourself of life's luxuries; Amazon already has a gazillion books on such trash. I wrote UNSCRIPTED to change your life.It was written for you if life has become hopeless and dissatisfying. It is for you if your weekday is held hostage by the bribery of its paycheck. It is for you if you are sick of the suck and tired of the tiresome: the breakroom gossip, the office politics, the managerial butt-kissing, and whatever else boils when multiple human beings are tossed in a box and tasked with corporate minutia. It is for you if you yearn for the creative autonomy to pursue work that matters. It is for you if you have X-ray vision and can see what your parents cannot that life's formulaic, scripted template has become dated and flawed.But most importantly, UNSCRIPTED is for you if you have been an aspiring entrepreneur far too long, someone who cannot turn a corner, turn a break, or turn a profit. Someone who might already own a business, but like a job, it just steals time and barely keeps the bill-paying treadmill moving until next month.So, if you are ready for the challenge, get ready for a sh*t-your-pants revelation that everything you have been taught is bullsh*t. Legendary bullsh*t. Paradigm shift? Heck no. The problem is the paradigm itself. You have allowed the paradigm to set the rules, call the shots, and dictate the decisions. The problem is, you have allowed ordinary thinking preached by ordinary people to produce exactly that; an ordinary life. The paradigm shift is realizing the paradigm is sh*t.
